It was in December in 2010 at Christmas Eve when we visited Kellonummi cemetery. Although we had plenty of snow at home, the amount of snow at cemetery was a surprise for us. My wife had to dig out from the snow the tombstone on purpose to light a candle. In Finland, it is tradition to visit the graves at Christmas remembering the dead. Last photo presents me at memorial site, which is devoted to those who buried elsewhere. My father’s graveyard is nearly 300 kilometers / 186 miles away from Kellonummi.

I do not know why comments are off. Thank You pushing like button. If possible, I’ll visit Your site.

Fyi:

I have to use yet my Mobile broadband modem for my connection, so that means I have huge difficulties to answer to comments. The connection works and not works; mainly not. I have been promised to get operational connection to our new home in December on Friday the 14th, 2012. Please to understand me if I have not checked Your posts. Happily I made many posts ready for publication, because I expected something like this problem. Thank You to You for understanding and to others who read this.
